YOUR STORY

Sales hiring is challenging.

First-time sales candidates are only available seasonally, post-

graduation from colleges and universities. This makes hiring off-season, challenging, and open headcount almost impossible to find

Some sobering statistics:

25%


The average turnover for a sales team of 10 with the majority of exits occurring off-cycle and without warning.​

company's gap to goal from attrition.

90%


The average number of days that an open sales position remains

vacant.

$850K


On a sales team of 10 people with a quota of $50k/mo. this

translates to an impact of well over $850k per year.


To gain a competitive edge, your organization requires a different

approach to identifying non-traditional sources of high-potential sales talent.


This requires sourcing "pre-vetted" candidates from a different talent

pool.


But how do you identify those who are most likely to succeed?

THEIR STORY


Every year, 250,000 veterans separate the Armed Services.

​More than ½ are under 25, only 3% have college degrees and 75%

separate active duty with no job.​

Although military members with specialized training find roles, those

who do will have 5 jobs in their next 3 years.

​The bridge from military life, military skills and military discipline to

civilian life requires a transition. A boot camp. An indoctrination.

And that's exactly what we provide at Sales Platoon - with a focus on

leveraging and translating highly skilled, resilient, dedicated, adaptive

and disciplined men and women from active duty to a career that

aligns well. A career in sales.

Our Story

Transitioning Military Experience to

World Class Sales Results​


Our veterans have the ability to quickly learn new methodologies, execute in a

controlled environment, overcome adversity, adapt, improvise and overcome

obstacles with minimal supervision and resources while embedded within diverse

teams.

Since sales is one of the few professions where 90% of the time people say no

and the other10% still means success, this further de-risks the risk of attrition due to

adversity.

Veterans lack the experience to translate their military experience into the civilian

world and the civilian world that struggles do to leverage their strengths.


That's where we come in.

SELECTION & ASSESSMENT


Right Team, Right Talent

Leveraging our deep connections within the military

community, we source high-potential candidates using our

proprietary core selection criteria. This rigorous process

only accepts 1 of 5 applicants.

Prior to placement with an organization, we utilize our

proprietary sales inspection process, to identify the

specific type of rep that your organization needs - and

then design our pre-onboarding accordingly.

Right Talent. Right Skills.

Based upon the unique needs of your organization, we

utilize our unique boot camp process to teach the critical

skills, sales fundamentals and behaviors required for

success. Our process provides both tactical and strategic

training to transform high-potential military veterans into

highly qualified, pre-trained, sales professionals.

PLACEMENT


Right Skills. Right Team.

With your organization's mission always in mind we

create a custom roadmap and onboarding plan for each

candidate - creating role clarity and a training plan for

the individual, customized to your business. Having led

sales teams for over 20 years, our founder knows what

reps need to know to hit the ground running and he

makes sure the training is practical and actionable

and that you see value from day 1.
